Dune 2000 is made by Westwood, the same developers of Command & Conquer, so it plays exactly the same (not that that's a bad thing because C&C rules!). It is apparently a remake of the 1992 original, Dune 2 which I never played because I that was the year I was born! Dune 2000 has a long life-span because of it's skirmish, and there are 3 armies to choose from so there are 3 campaigns which is cool. I guess the worst thing about Dune 2000 are the graphics which were crappy even when the game was released! Also, the maps all feel the same. But well done to Westwood with the videos because like C&C games, they are quality with real actors. Also, they have been made to look like the film. So overall Dune 2000, though it feels like any other Westwood game, deserves a higher score than Gamespot gave it in my opinion because it's got great gameplay and give it a try if your looking for a simple 2D RTS. It's just a bit dull at times because the maps all feel the same, but this is Dune we're talkin' about!
